. the latter being" of such a consistency as to hold the straw in position, as shown in the drawings.

The syrup will generally be of a contrasting color to the marshmallow fillerto indicate a particular fruit flavor, such ass'trawberry, orange, lemon and the like, while the marshmallow filler will generally be white to represent ,a foam or vanilla ice cream, but for course may be colored to represent chocolate ice cream, ora fgeice or the like-) Y. A confection. novelty oil this kind is'designed to be sold to childrenat a low .price, i

say :one cent, and; being made attractively and. high gra e .materian, has roves fascinating to children and afi'ords thein a great deal of pleasure without rin any injuring their" health.
